Some hardware configuration registers such as antenna and channel configuration
can only be written when the radio is enabled. Previously, we didn't consider
this, so some configuration items could be set inconsistently after reenabling
the radio. This patch changes the config() handler to only reprogram the
hardware when the radio is enabled. Configuration changes that are made while
the radio is off are postponed until the radio is switched back on. We also
leave the radio turned off during initialization and only enable it when
requested by mac80211. This allows us to get rid of the DIRTY_CONFIG flag,
because the device is now guaranteed to be completely initialized when brought
up by mac80211.

Some of the flags should be accessed atomically to
prevent race conditions. The flags that are most important
are those that can change often and indicate the actual
state of the device, queue or queue entry.
The big flag rename was done to move all state flags to
the same naming type as the other rt2x00dev flags and
made sure all places where the flags were used were changed. ;)
Thanks to Stephen for most of the queue flags updates,
which fixes some of the most obvious consequences of the
race conditions. Among those the notorious:
rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.
rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the non-full queue 0.

Various rt2x00 devices support hardware encryption.
Most of them require the IV/EIV to be generated by mac80211,
but require it to be provided seperately instead of within
the frame itself. This means that rt2x00lib should extract
the data from the frame and place it in the frame descriptor.
During RX the IV/EIV is provided in the descriptor by the
hardware which means that it should be inserted into the
frame by rt2x00lib.

rt2x00 will only perform configuration changes from
mac80211 when the configuration option has changed.
This means it keeps track of the current active configuration
and will check these values when the config() callback function
is used.
However this causes breakage when the interface has been
brought down and up again, since all stored active values
aren't reset while the registers might have.
This is for example the case with rt61pci antenna registers which
will jump to invalid values when the interface has been started.
To make sure a full configuration takes place after the start()
callback function, a new flag is added which will be checked
during config() and skips the "what's changed" phase.

Olivier reported a difference between the EIFS
values used in the legacy driver and the one in
the rt2x00 drivers.
In rt2x00 the value was
( SIFS + (8 * (IEEE80211_HEADER + ACK_SIZE)) )
which comes down to 314us while the legacy driver uses the value 364us
This was caused because EIFS is: SIFS + DIFS + AckTime
This patch will fix this by adding the DIFS by the above value,
and creating a SHORT_EIFS define which uses the SHORT_DIFS.

This patch makes mac80211 assign proper sequence numbers to
QoS-data frames. It also removes the old sequence number code
because we noticed that only the driver or hardware can assign
sequence numbers to non-QoS-data and especially management
frames in a race-free manner because beacons aren't passed
through mac80211's TX path.
This patch also adds temporary code to the rt2x00 drivers to
not break them completely, that code will have to be reworked
for proper sequence numbers on beacons.
It also moves sequence number assignment down in the TX path
so no sequence numbers are assigned to frames that are dropped.

This fixes a circular locking dependency in the workqueue handling.
The interface work task uses the mac80211 function
ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() which grabs the RTNL lock.
However when the interface is brough down, this happens under the RTNL
lock as well, this causes problems because mac80211 will flush the workqueue
during the ifdown event. This causes mac80211 to wait until the driver has
completed all work which can't finish because it is waiting on the RTNL lock.
This is fixed by moving rt2x00 workqueue tasks on a different workqueue,
this workqueue can be flushed when the ieee80211_hw structure is removed
by the driver (when the driver is unloaded) which does not happen under the
RTNL lock.

TX queues shouldn't be kicked after each frame that is put into the
queue. This could cause problems during RTS and CTS-to-self as well
as with fragmentation. In all those cases you want all frames to be
send out in a single burst. Off course we shouldn't let the queue fill
up entirely, thus we introduce a 10% threshold which, when reached,
will force the frames to be send out regardless of the frame.
In addition we should prevent queues to become full in such a way
that the tx() handler can fail. Instead of stopping the queue when
it is full, we should stop it when it is below the threshold.

With the integration of the mac80211 multiqueue patches it has become possible that the
mac80211 layer modifies the number of TX queues that is stored inside the ieee80211_hw
structure, especially when multi-queue is not selected.
The rt2x00 drivers are not well suited to handle that situation, as they allocate the
queue structures before mac80211 has modified the number of queues it is going to use,
and also expect the number of allocated queues to match the hardware implementation.
Hence, ensure that rt2x00 maintains by itself the number of queues that the hardware
supports, and, at the same time, making is not dependent on the preservation of contents
inside a mac80211 structure.
